Yes because obesity

I think that people should be forced to do PE in school because governments are complaining that the average weight of children under the age of 20 is getting bigger when physical education in schools is not compulsory. So basically they are complaining about something that they are not helping themselves

PE should be required at all Public schools.

PE lets kids work out and build stamina. It also brings self confidence to students and lets the kids have fun during school and also gives them the exercise they need. It provides them with running, weight lifting, and conditioning. PE shows students that there is more than staring at a screen all day.

Compulsory physical education

Physical education in schools should be compulsory.

Physical education in schools should be compulsory. Every student should be required to take physical education every year throughout school. I think that is what is wrong with most children today is that they are not getting the exercise that they should be getting. If children are not going to exercise at home then they should be required to at school.

There is a serious obesity and health problem in the United States. There are some kids who don't have any healthy options in their childhood other than the exercise that they get in physical education.

Physical Activity Reduces Stress, Maintains Fitness

Physical education is just one component of an overall education in public schools. Some classes should be mandatory so students get some physical activity while in school. Physical activity reduces stress and helps kids maintain fitness during a six-hour or more school day. Phys ed has always been around and those types of classes should stay.

Waste of time

We have only 6 to 7 hours of school and why waste 1hour on PE? We can use it to study...Unless if someone is really REALLY interested in sports then join a sports CCA! We have plenty of free sports ccas in school..Or we can also go for classes as PE dosent teach ALL sports of a students interest!

Sport is NOT my future

Yes, there are people who don't want to be a pro footballer or rugby player when they are older. Students should pursue the subjects they enjoy; if PE is compulsory, it will be less enjoyable and take their focus away from the subjects that they will actually NEED in their future career. Take it from me - I'm a student myself. The obesity problem is something that should be taken care of by individuals and their families. Not EVERYONE is obese.

PE is not needed at all nor is it a compulsory subject in school.
